I like Pedro's idea of adding a "How to process items" dropdown to the Batch Record Modification tool so that the modification of existing bibs is handled using as much existing code from the record import process as possible, thereby ensuring consistency of behavior. I would rather see that functionality added in this bug than in a follow-up. Introducing this feature with its current inconsistency of behavior relative to the import process seems like it will create confusion that will persist even after a follow-up bug makes the behavior consistent. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are watching all bug changes. _______________________________________________ Koha-bugs mailing list [email protected] https://lists.koha-community.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/koha-bugs website : http://www.koha-community.org/ git : http://git.koha-community.org/ bugs : http://bugs.koha-community.org/
